Here in our county the "possum police" work through the sheriff's office for dispatching, backup, etc. I'd forget about those 1-800 numbers if you want a fast response. Any peace officer can enforce game laws. They just won't likely be totally up on all the complexities. They will be able to get ahold of a game warden however. Ours were always good about coming out, if called, even if they weren't on duty at the time. Response time wasn't going to be like calling 911 though. Our game wardens were very receptive to calls, they considered all the lil' animals their personal property.
